Mehrdad Taghizadeh Manzari, K. Morgan · Malaysian Journal of Civil Engineering · 2018
A numerical procedure is presented for simulating three dimensional turbulentflow problems. The mass-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved togetherwith the low-Reynolds k - co two-equation turbulence model. The standardGalerkin approach is used for spatial discretisation. Stabilisation anddiscontinuity capturing is achieved by the addition of an appropriate diffusion.An explicit multistage time stepping scheme is used to advance the solution intime to steady state. The study of realistic problems involving complexgeometries can be achieved by using parallel computers. The results of asimulation involving ' transonic turbulent flow about a complete aircraft arepresented.
